Reference Drum Kit Mode [DRUM KIT] Trigger Signal Settings [SF4] TRIGGER From this display, you can set the parameters which determine how the DTX900 responds to the Trigger Signal for each Trigger Input Source. This display consists of two pages. 1 4 23 76 5 98 1 SOURCE (Trigger Input Source) Determines the Trigger Input Source to be edited. You can change the Trigger Input Source by hitting the corresponding pad when Input Lock is turned off. Settings Refer to the Trigger Input Source List on page 61. B TrigLink (Trigger Link) When any other value than "off" is selected here, different Trigger Input Sources (on the same pad) can generate the Trigger Signals simultaneously by simply hitting a certain Trigger Input Source. Keep in mind that the available values (Trigger Input Source) differ depending on the Trigger Input Source specified at 1. Settings off, head, rim1, rim2, rim1&2, bow, pad11 NOTE • When SOURCE is set to "hhFtCl," "hhSplsh," or "pad11," the Trigger Link parameter is not available. C TrigVelocity (Trigger Velocity) Determines the value of velocity generated by hitting the pad corresponding to the SOURCE specified at 1. When "variable" is selected, the velocity value is determined by your hitting strength. When a value between "1" - "127" is selected, the corresponding value is used as the velocity regardless of your hitting strength. Settings variable, 1 - 127 D PAGE > This appears when another page can be called up from the current page. Use the Cursor [M] or [N] button to call up another page. E [SF6] Input Lock You can turn Input Lock on or off by pressing this button. When Input Lock is turned on (the [L] indicator appears at the top right of the display), the Trigger Input jack 1 cannot be changed even if you hit any pad. This function is useful when you want to adjust the parameters of the current pad (connected to the current Trigger Input jack) while hitting other pads. F TrigAltGroup (Trigger Alternate Group) Determines the Alternate Group to which the Trigger Input Source is assigned. If multiple Trigger Input Source are grouped with the same number assigned, only one input from that group is enabled at a time. When a Trigger Input Source is enabled from a trigger alternate group, other Trigger Input Source from the same group respectively generate a MIDI note off event for the corresponding MIDI note number. The RcvKeyOff parameter for the drum Voice (10 ch) should be set to "on" in the display called up via the [DRUM KIT] → [F2] VOICE → [SF4] OTHER. Up to 32 Alternate Groups can be defined. You can also select "off" here if you wish to allow the simultaneous playback of sounds. Settings off, 1 - 32 G TrigMono/Poly (Trigger Mono/Poly) Determines whether the current Trigger Input Source is played back monophonically or polyphonically. If "mono" is selected, triggering the same Voice continuously will stop the previous sound, then start the same Voice sound. Note that the previous sound is stopped by a note off message, unlike the Mono/Poly parameter in the display called up via the [DRUM KIT] → [F2] VOICE → [SF4] OTHER. Accordingly, the RcvKeyOff parameter for the Voice (current Trigger Input Source) should be set to "on" in the display called up via the [DRUM KIT] → [F2] VOICE → [SF4] OTHER. If "Poly" is selected, there is no such limitation. Settings mono, poly H Mask Time Determines the amount of time within which the DTX900 does not accept the Trigger Signal from the current Trigger Input Source after you hit the corresponding pad. When this parameter is set to "2.0s" for example, the DTX900 ignores the Trigger Signal for two seconds after you hit the corresponding pad. Settings off, 20ms, 40ms - 10.00s (by 20ms), 20.00s, 30.00s I Hold Mode This parameter is normally set to "off," so that that hitting the same pad (current Trigger Input Source) only triggers (starts) the corresponding Voice sound. On the other hand, when set to "on," hitting the same pad alternately both triggers and stops the corresponding Voice sound. Because note off messages are used for stopping the Voice sound, you need to set the RcvKeyOff parameter to on in the display called up via [DRUM KIT] → [F2] VOICE → [SF4] OTHER.
